My New-to-Me Kanati Bow! More Pics Added to First Post...
« on: April 04, 2011, 09:42:00 AM »
Been wanting to try one of these for awhile now and I finally got my chance at the Ky Tradfest Sunday morning. After shooting the Kanati, I loved it so much that I traded my Predator recurve for it and some other things, including a Big Jim bow quiver, and some cash. Already got it tuned to my Beman MFX 500 Classics and it's like I've been shooting this bow for years. One of the easiest bows to setup I've ever had. Jason makes a fine bow!

Sorry about the crappy background. I just had to get some pics of it so I didn't take too much time looking for the ideal place to do it!

Specs are: 53#@28"(49#@ my 26.75" draw) and 58" AMO. Limbs are bamboo lams and core with black glass front and back. Diamondwood "Heritage Walnut" color phase riser.

..................Picture UPDATE................

Man, I just can't get enough of shooting this bow! I am amazed at how easy this bow is to shoot. Not too hard on the eyes either. Been shooting it off and on all day long from 20 yards to 27 yards.

Very nice Doug, The grip felt very good to me. Great looking setup with the quiver. I really liked his quiver straps.

“instinctive archery” is more like playing the violin. Without practice you may remember the mechanics, but you will not be a virtuoso.

Predator to a Kanati, that's a pretty big switch. both good bows though.

 He makes a heck of a bow that will shoot just about any arrow good.

If only he made a take down, hint, hint

Nice looking bow!    :rolleyes:     I think I made that one for Matt Lamey, I am glad to hear it found a home! Be sure to send me your mojo photos.

OXB, I have a 3 piece in the works, just waiting on a drilling jig from the machine shop and I should be ready. I hope!

Edit, I was just cleaning out my PM's and you already knew that  :D
